***Official*** English Domestic Season 2014

[fredfertang]

Mahmood got 3 wickets..did go for 4.5 an over though but still, Hampshire should be ashamed.

Our innings went as per the rest of the season, we have fought back a bit with the ball but already a 30 run deficit and 2 wickets left, Adams will probably smash a 50. Can see us setting Notts 150 to win or something.

Good prediction mate - that put the Indian sign on them

Dunno about picking Kegga, I reckon the selectors could do a lot worse than dropping Stokes and calling up Chapple

Lewis Gregory the only answer to England's woes clearly.

.............. and I've heard worse ideas than that one

 

[stumpski]

Ten bowlers used by Foster against Hants, that's unusual. All proper bowlers though, Saj jokes aside. In fact Smith, the last man tried, has 174 wickets!

 

[91Jmay]

Sam Hain with another ton. Two hundreds and nearly 500 runs at the age of 18 (against Durham as well so not a mug bowling line up). Big future ahead of him.

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Gah. Wheater would have to score runs against Essex, wouldn't he.

 

[Pothas]

We let Mahmood get wickets, this is distressing in the extreme.

Getting really worried about promotion now.

Potentially the only thing more distressing than seeing his name on the scorecard for your beloved team.

 

[superkingdave]

Think my 150 prediction might be about right. Would have pulled a fast one and replaced Kerrigan with a batsman, not sure Parry will offer us much more than Croft/Aga with the ball, mind you none of our batsmen probably offer much more than him with the bat.

 

[superkingdave]

Tom Smith WAFG, 48 @18.06 for the season now.

 

[stumpski]

Lancashire live to fight another day it seems. No bowling yet for Parry, Kerrigan's replacement, in a rare Championship outing - but his late runs and partnership with Kabir look to have been crucial.

 

[grecian]

Comfortable win for Somerset then, I was never worried.

 

[91Jmay]

Hell of a win for the Bears. Finally got a batting line up and we should start winning games again, to little to late for the title though. Jeetan's fine season continues.

 

[stumpski]

And a win for Notts! I wasn't expecting that at 85-5 and I doubt if many would have been at 119-7 either. Read is a real scrapper and often good to have in these situations but Fletcher's innings was important as well - he won't make many better 18s than that. But what was the point of bringing Parry in and then only giving him two overs? Not even as if he was expensive.

 

[stumpski]

Tom Curran likely to miss the rest of the season with an ankle injury he picked up in the Glamorgan game. Perhaps a recall for Meaker, who's in the 2nd's today.

 

[King Pietersen]

KP and Dilshan named in the 13-man Surrey squad for tonight, getting pretty excited at the thought of watching those two batting together in person, would love it if KP got a score. Looking forward to watching Tres too, though it's a shame he won't be opening up with Bedwetter.

Oh, KP will get a score, don't worry, the amount of stick I've given him, he's bound to do his one meaningful innings of the year against us.

Actually, you may only get to see Tres because CK is injured, he has been in hideous T20 form, and was rested last match. Been great in First-Class though, so who cares?

 

[King Pietersen]

I hope so

Yeah, that's what I meant, that he won't be opening up with CK. Was looking forward to Betwetter having a bash when I ordered the tickets, so a shame he misses out. Surely he'd have managed a score batting at the Oval against Turdbach?!

 

[grecian]

Well Dernbach isn't playing, but much more interestingly Dunn is. Interested in watching him, he's meant to be rapid.

Tres keeps which will either be epic or a disaster.

 

[stumpski]

Matt Dunn on TV, folks. Wicket with his third ball.
